Sheri
Certified Tutor
I am passionate about learning. That means different things to different students and types of learners. I have a great deal of experience with a diverse group of learners. I am certified to teach English Language Arts grades 6-12 in Georgia and Louisiana. I am also experienced with non traditional students and students with learning barriers. This includes adults.
Tutoring lets me teach, explain, and mentor in the most effective way for that learner. I am super creative and always looking for the best way to help ideas, knowledge and concepts stick in your brain. (That is where they need to be, right?)
I am an Air Force veteran, where I began as a Training Manager. I loved the small group training model so much that when I separated, I went back to college and graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology (with honors) from the University of Southern Mississippi. I was also a teacher and board member of an adult literacy program. In 2013, I went back to school and completed an MBA in my home city of Savannah, GA.
There are very few times that I'm not helping someone with figuring something out. I find that we often get overwhelmed with a project or assignment because we don't know how to break it down and learn the parts. I love that process and would love to show you (or your student) some different ways to look at it.
I love to write, which also helps me learn more about all kinds of topics. And communicating (either in an essay, on a test, or even in conversation) is the key. I typically write in APA or MLA style. I look forward to making your assignments less difficult, all while learning some new tools for the future.

What is your teaching philosophy?
When I see a student is struggling, I will often go back to an easier problem so that they can accomplish it successfully.
